Perhaps you have learned something then  :-)  As long as you
understand that this 'feature' is *not specific the Engimail but to
*every* server that runs Mailman as the software.


1) The email is only sent to the address of the registered user. N one
else.

2) The password only allows the registered user to sign-in and edit
the general setting of the account.

3) The password is not required to post to or recieve from the list.


I'm just a user here BTW but you have a good day.
